Understanding Everything About Slack Canvas

• Slack Canvas is where information is captured and shared with the team when the work is in progress between Slack digital Headquarters and your organization. 
• It is the platform where all your team’s crucial information and resources are captured and put together. Some of that information is already in Slack, like profiles of your co-workers, apps, workflows, and messages. Other parts of the data are stored in different apps and tools the organization regularly uses, whether in another software or developed in-house.
• One of the fantastic features of Canvas is that any professional, whether in marketing, sales, or design, can develop a canvas that suits their team’s needs. It can include campaign planning, updating sales accounts, project planning, etc. Canvases will help organizations put all the rich data and content together- so teams don’t have to waste time searching and can focus on moving forward. 
• Since they established their platform, Canvas has been on the list of objectives of Slack. Slack constantly desired a platform for a static and persistent flow of information because data is the most crucial part of the customer experience. Slack wanted a platform to help teams work smarter, better, and faster.
